Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Every April, the District of Columbia and advocates worldwide come together to raise awareness about sexual assault and celebrate organizations supporting survivors and allies during Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM).

The 2026 Action Guide is a one-stop resource with a community calendar of local events, hotlines and resources, community engagement ideas, sexual assault statistics, sample social media posts, and online best practices.

As a partner in this effort, your support will help set the course for an informative, empowering month.
